2Safety Symbols, Notices and Warnings

2.1 Safety symbols

This Warning symbol indicates danger for the system and material if the respective safety

precautions are not taken, or indicates that danger of injury for persons and the environment and/or

considerable material damage (mortal danger, danger of injury) will occur if the respective safety

precautions are not taken.

This Warning symbol indicates danger by explotion for the system and material and the operator and

bystanders if the respective safety precautions are not taken.

This Warning symbol indicates electrical shock hazard for the system and material and the operator

and bystanders if the respective safety precautions are not taken.

This Warning symbol indicates personal injury if the respective safety precautions are not taken.

This Notice symbol does not indicate safety notices but information for a better understanding of the

facts.

2.2 User Responsibilities

To ensure safety, the operator must make sure that the following conditions are met:

The system is used properly, no dangerous media are used and that all technical specifications are

observed

The system is in perfect operating condition

The operation manual is legible and accessible to the user at the system’s location

The system is operated, serviced and repaired only by authorized and qualified personnel.

The user receives instruction on industrial safety and environmental protection, and is

knowledgeable of all operating instructions and safety notices relevant to the current procedure

2.3 General Safety Notices

The system should be operated only by trained personnel who are familiar with this manual and the

operation of the instrument.

The Traqc-8 DPC is powered via the power cable with a voltage that can cause physical injury.

Ensure that the electrical installation to which the Traqc-8 DPC has to be connected to, conforms

with local and national safety requirements. The Traqc-8 DPC must be connected to a suitable fused

and protected electrical supply and a suitable earth (ground) point.

A condition for trouble-free and safe operation of this system is proper transport, proper storage,

installation, assembly and proper use as well as careful operation and maintenance.

Any operation not described in the following instructions should be prohibited. The system must be

handled with care required for an electronic precision instrument (protect from humidity, impacts,

strong magnetic fields, static electricity and extreme temperatures). Do not insert any objects into

the instrument.

2.4 Warnings and Caution Notices

WARNING: PRESSURE! Pressure gases are potentially hazardous. Energy stored in these gases can be

released suddenly and with extreme force. Pressure systems should be assembled and operated only

by personnel who have been trained in proper safety practices.

Do not disconnect any pressure connection of the Traqc-8 DPC when a leak test of any kind is

processing. Physical injury may exceed when process connections will be disconnected, caused by

the expanding gas.

CAUTION: Pressure testing with compressed gases can lead to additional risks due to release of

stored energy (e.g. burst of system, flying objects). Please take appropriate measures (e.g. shielding,

use of personal protective equipment (PPE)) to prevent hazardous situations which could result in

human injuries.

WARNING: POSSIBLE INJURY! The tubing, valves and other apparatus attached to the instrument

must be adequate for the maximum pressure which will be applied, otherwise physical injury to the

operator or bystanders is possible.

CAUTION: Use proper pressure medium. Use only clean, dry gas. This instrument is not designed for

oxygen use.

WARNING: NOT EXPLOSION PROOF! Use of this instrument in an area requiring devices rated as

intrinsically safe is not recommended.

WARNING: Detachable main power supply cord with inadequate ratings should not be used.

WARNING: It is the responsibility to the operator to ensure that pressure in circuits connected to the

Traqc-8 DPC will never exceed their safe working pressure. In the event that the maximum safe

working pressure of a circuit / system to be tested is lower than the maximum obtainable output

pressure of the Traqc-8 DPC, the operator who will perform the tests must be instructed in advance

regarding the maximum safe working pressure of the external circuit.

Depending on the volume and pressure in the external circuit the risks for humans and material can

be very high. For that reason the end user must ensure that maximum pressure levels for each circuit

are established as set forth by law. (European directive 2014/68/EU or similar guidelines/obligations

are specified and applicable in the country of use.)

Because of the potential risk for human beings in the vicinity of systems/circuits under pressure, the

end user must ensure that risks are kept to the minimum by fencing, warning, forbidding passage or

access to the area for as long as the risk exists.

Do not connect the voltages higher than specified in the specifications to the PDT Tool. If higher

voltages are connected, the interface control may be damaged.

2.5 TRAQC-8 DPC Description

The Tradinco Pneumatic Differential Pressure Calibrator,

TRAQC-8 DPC, is designed for calibration of differential line pressure. The

maximum allowable line pressure is 75 bar. The maximum differential

pressure that can be set is + 1000 mbar above line pressure
